Lyrics

Albus
You called yourself the light
Let's talk about the shadow you kept out of sight
For the greater good, for the greater good
You said it like a prayer like a wise man should
But every greater good has a greater cost
And every chosen one is a child you lost
You found me in an orphanage a boy with empty eyes
You saw the darkness in me and you walked away that night
You could have changed my story you could have stayed a while
But you left a lonely child with a too-familiar smile
You knew about the darkness cause you danced with it before
A blonde boy in a village and a sister on the floor
That prison stands empty now but you remember well
The slogan that you whispered when you cast that final spell
"For the greater good" — sound familiar in your head?
That's the line you taught your friend before your sister wound up dead
You locked him in a tower I locked me in fear
The difference between us is the suit the world makes you wear
For the greater good, for the greater good
You said it like a prayer like a wise man should
But every greater good has a greater cost
And every chosen one is a child you lost
You raised that boy like cattle fed him hope and called it love
Sent him into battle with a riddle and a glove
The mirror in the chamber the sword inside the hat
You played it like a chess game and the king was just a pawn that sat
You knew about the fragments you knew about the mark
You knew he had to fall for me to fall apart
You told your loyal serpent "raise him like a son
And bring him to the slaughter when the time has finally come"
That's not a mentor that's a farmer with a plan
You watered him with kindness so he'd bleed when you began
Lemon drops and twinkling eyes and socks for Christmas Day
A grandfather performance for the lamb you'd send away
For the greater good, for the greater good
You said it like a prayer like a wise man should
But every greater good has a greater cost
And every chosen one is a child you lost
But here's the part I'll give you cause I'm fair when it counts
You beat me in the end I won't pretend about that
You played the longest game the patient kind the cold
You sat behind a desk and let a boy do what you told
The Elder Wand was yours then his then mine then his again
A wand that picks the worthy and you held it til the end
You were the better wizard I can say it now I'm done
But greatness isn't goodness — that's the lesson left unsung
I killed because I wanted I admit my sins out loud
You killed by proxy Albus and they called it being proud
I made an army of the willing you made one boy of stone
The difference is I never made him think he walked alone
For the greater good, for the greater good
You said it like a prayer like a wise man should
But every greater good has a greater cost
And every chosen one is a child you lost
You won, Albus
I'll say it once
You won
But the boy in the cupboard
The girl in the garden
The friend in the tower
They all paid your tuition
You sat in your office
With your phoenix and your sweets
And you moved us all like pieces
Black king, white king
Same hand
Sleep well, old man
The portraits never lie
And neither do I
Anymore
